Practice Makes Perfect

Next weekend the kids and I are heading to WI to celebrate my godson's 1st Birthday!  We are very excited to see Sebastian, his sister Saffron as well at their parents along with other family.  I offered to make some cut-out cookies.  I bought number cookie cutters last year for Eddie's birthday, and I figured I won't have too many opportunities to use them, so I might as well take advantage.  I am going to frost them using royal icing, which Lisa showed me back when she visited in Oct.  I wanted to do some practicing before making the cookies for Sebastian's party, so they looked great.  I decided to make some snowflakes and they turned out pretty well!

And of course I cant resist posting a cute picture of the kids.  Uncas had to leave early Saturday morning to go out of town.  The kids were just waking up, so I quick brought them downstairs.

*As a side note, we normally don't let Eddie have his blankie or nuk outside his bedroom, but this was a special circumstance!
